Reviews
A must visit place when traveling to the beautiful city of Pittsburgh. There’s a great scenic view of the city from this location. It has some of the oldest buildings in the area. Parking is curb side and very limited. Do not attempt to go there by bike or scooter as the hill is very steep.
The Grandview Overlook boasts the perfect view of Pittsburgh's Golden Triangle. The Overlook, as it is called by locals, is located on Mount Washington, a 450-foot hill that is popular among residents and tourists alike. The Overlook runs the length of Mount Washington and provides vantage points of Pittsburgh's beautiful Skyline. we parked street side parking and enjoyed the look from the 2 overlooks. both are adjacent to each other. The Grandview Overlook is also located within the impressive Emerald View Park, a 257-acre park that consists of the Grandview Scenic Byway, and three historic spaces; the Grandview Overlook, Olympia, and Mount Washington. It is a perfect spot to watch a gorgeous Pittsburgh sunset. and free to visit.
The views of downtown Pittsburgh from here are just breathtaking. It's free to visit and there's also free street parking close by. We didn't have trouble finding a spot. There are no other visitor amenities. On a sunny day, plan to come here around noon or later for the best photos. If you are here during the morning hours, you'll be facing the sun directly, so photos will be very glary. Bring a good camera.
The view from here is absolutely stunning. It is possibly one of the grandest city overlooks I have visited. You can see the entire city with great river views and many bridges this city is famous for. Parking is limited and the drive is pretty steep, but well worth the effort. Best views seem to be at night.
Beautiful place to watch downtown Pittsburgh and the Monongahela River. You can see beautiful color transition in the sky during sunset. At night the view is magnificent. All the buildings light up and the reflection on the water is just breathtaking. Highly recommended.
This view left me astonished. Pittsburgh is one of the prettiest cities in the United States. The breathtaking view of the city at night is even more impressive. Every time I visit from out of town I enjoy this city more than previously.
Simply awesome. Try and reach late evening during daylight and then stay until it's gets dark. Downtown looks superb. Wish the fountain at point state park was operational, view would have been even better.
one of the best sights in Pittsburgh, there is not only one point to photograph the city, you can take a short walk to go through Grandview to see different views, great for day and night photos as it has great lighting. Offer to take other people's pictures too!
The Grandview overlook is one of Pittsburgh's best, viewpoints. The view of the city and the rivers and bridges is always stunning and the colors are amazing. The only thing is to just be aware of your surroundings because it is not always the safest part of Pittsburgh. Personally, I've never had any issues up there but I know that some people have. Overall, I would definitely recommend this, as well as the West End Overlook as my two favorite spots to look at the city from above.
Amazing view of Pittsburgh skyline. Visited during daytime, but thought that city lights would look amazing in the night hours, and spot on! As the lights started to turn on after sunset, it looked absolutely beautiful. Must watch!! Easy bokeh effects with a decent camera!!
